Default Meet Harry the 3-legged hamster

Some of you may remember me posting a few months back in the health section, for advice about a dwarf hamster where I volunteer that had an odd looking scent gland.

Anyway, as of the weekend he now has a new home with my Mam so I thought I'd post some photos and hopefully you guys can let me know what breed he is too! Does anyone know?

He's at least a year old, as he's been where I volunteer since I started going there. I imagine he's quite elderly. Anyone good at estimating ages by photos?





This is his new cage and the ladder is low so he can manage to get up and down easily. There's a house on the shelf, a plastic boot, tube, toilet roll tube and wheel in there. I'll have to ask if he's used the wheel yet, as he hadn't when I was there - either because he didn't know what to do, wasn't interested or is unable to use it I'm not sure.



Here are some extra pics too, if you wish to take a peek!

Awww what an adorable little fellow
He has a lovely little home there and will be spoilt and love so well done you and your mam for taking him in.
He doesn't look very old as they do tend to lose fur from the back end as they age and he looks quite well rounded and fluffy. I would hazard a guess at 6-12months really. They can live to 3yrs old.
Hope you have lots of fun with him
